CONTINGENCY PLAN – KHARIF - 2015

Introduction: The Gujarat state situated at 200 1’ and 240 7’ N Latitude and 680 4’ and 740 4’ E

longitude. The total geographical area of the state is 196 lakh hectares which is 6% of the total

area of country. At present, out of Total geographical areas of Gujarat State about 88% is under

arid and semi-arid types of climate. In most parts of Gujarat State except South Gujarat, have

arid and semi-arid climate, due to this situation, uncertain, uneven and erratic rainfall arises in

the state. Around 90% of pearl millet, 60% of sorghum and cotton, 80 to 90% of groundnut and

more than 50% of pulses produced from this area. Due to uncertain and erratic rainfall, the

production per unit area is low along with non-satisfactory yields of the crops.

Why Contingency Plan?

Indian Agriculture is primarily rain-dependent. While the onset progress and withdrawal

of the monsoon decide the crop planning, the temporal and spatial variability in the monsoon

decide the crop planning, the temporal and spatial variability in the monsoon activity influences

the crop productivity and requires contingent planning on regular basis.

Contingency planning refer to mitigate any unexpected, unusual, unfavorable and hence

unwanted accidental weather situation as well as Alnino like weather situation occurring at

any time without prior knowledge at any time before the crops are sown or even after the crop

are sown. The contingency crop planning therefore is proposed to mitigate such situation

through the choice of appropriate crop and varieties, cropping systems or other necessary

relevant farm practices.

In vagaries of monsoon many technologies are developed to sustain the Agricultural

Production, but farmers are not acquainted with these information. Even every year farmers

suffer due to vagaries of monsoon and breaks of varying duration of rain is common. To

overcome these situations, contingency plan is useful to mitigate the situation.

Gujarat Climate:

Gujarat weather, an inevitable part of the geography of Gujarat, has certain

characteristics that mark it special among the other western regions of India. Gujarat weather is

marked by an arid and dry climate, with a little bit of rain during the monsoons.

Gujarat weather shows two distinctive traits. In the northern region, Gujarat weather is

marked by a dry and arid climate; whereas in the south, one can find a moist weather owing to

the Arabian Sea and the Gulf of Cambay.


- 20 -

Normally, the Gujarat weather is divided into four major seasons:

The winter season (November - February)

The summer season (March - May)

The monsoon season (June - September), and

The autumn season (October)

Winters in Gujarat are mild, pleasant and dry. The day temperature in winter is around

83° F and at night is 53° F. Summers are extremely hot, with the day time temperature being

115° F, and the night temperature being 90° F. In Gujarat, monsoon is generally hot and utterly

humid. The temperature at day is 100° F but at night it falls down to 80° F. Sometimes severe

flood also occurs in some parts of the region during monsoon.

Soils of Gujarat:-

The major group of soils such as deep black, alluvial soils, laterite soils, medium black

soils, sandy loam soils, sodic soils, hilly soils, desert soils and forest soils, the details of areas

include in different groups are given in soil map.

Rain :-

The monsoon is, indeed, a characteristic feature of the Gujarat weather because the other

parts of the western India is devoid of any rainfall. Studying the geography of Gujarat, one can

find that the rainfall in Gujarat varies from place to place - the average rainfall varies from 33 to

152 centimeters. The northern region receives a rainfall ranging from 51 to 102 centimeters;

whereas the southern region receives 76 to 152 centimeters of rainfall.


- 21 -

Rainfall in the southern regions of Saurashtra and the Gulf of Cambay is low compared

to the other parts of Gujarat. The arid regions around the Rann of Kutch faces an acute scarcity

of water, due to lack of rainfall in these areas. Last ten years rain data as follows.

Agro-Climatic Zones of Gujarat State

Gujarat’s agro climate can be categorized as very heterogeneous and it constitutes about

20 per cent of arid and 9 per cent semi-arid areas of the country (Next to Rajasthan). Vast area

of Saurashtra Kutch and North Gujarat falls under arid to Semi-arid .It comprises low and

erratic rainfall where, even Kharif crops requires one or two Life Saving irrigation.

The winter is mild cold, whereas summer is hot. Agro climate of the state divided in to

eight sub regions in respect of rainfall, temperature, humidity and geographical situation.

Crops and Cropping pattern:-

State has distinguished agriculture seasons broadly divided in to Kharif, Rabi and

summer season. Out of 125.82 lakhs ha. of gross cropped area , 70 % area is cultivated under

Kharif crops, 25 % area cultivated under Rabi crops and 25 % area is being cultivated under

Summer crops. Most of the Kharif crops are depends on rainfall however; back up supports of

one or two life supporting irrigation is crucial due to erratic nature of rain. Rabi and summer

crops are life supporting irrigation except in “Bhal” and other low laying area.

The areas under Non-food crops, (Oil seeds, commercial and horticultural crops) is

higher than food crops (Cereals and Pulses). The major crops are listed below.

Kharif : Cotton, Groundnut, Sesame, Castor, Paddy, Bajara, Maize, Tur,

Green Gram, Sugarcane

Rabi / Summer : Wheat, Rice, Maize, Mustard, Gram, Groundnut, Bajara

Horticultural Crops : Mango, Sopata, Banana, Guava, Aonla, Ber, Date – Palm, Custard

apple, Cumin, Fennel, Isabgul, and Vegetables.

Gujarat is largest producer of Castor, Cotton, Sesame, Groundnut and Spices in the Country

along with monopoly crops like Dates, Kesar Mango, and durum wheat, Fennel, Cumin and

Isabgul.

Drought:

The moisture deficit which results when the amount of water available in the soil

is not sufficient to meet the demand of potential evapotranspiration.

Drought is natural hazard that differs from other hazards as it has a slow onset,

evolves over months or even years and affects small pockets to a large regional expanse.

Its onset and severity are often difficult to determine. As a result there is a lack of

urgency in response. Like other hazard, the impacts of drought span economic,

environmental and social sectors and can be reduced through mitigation and

preparedness. Because droughts are a normal part of climate variability for virtually all

regions. Characterized by extended periods of water shortage, it is important to develop

contextual plans to deal with them in a timely, systematic manner as they evolve.

Drought is just not the scarcity or lack of rainfall, but an issue related to water

resource management.


- 26 -

Contingency plan for crop production:-

The contingency plan for the Kharif is worked out to minimize the risk and to protect

crop from major failures.

For avoiding crop losses due to adverse effect of irregular and erratic monsoon the

contingent planning should be based on the following points.

1. Late onset of monsoon.

2. Dry spell during crop period or long dry spell in the monsoon.

3. Early withdrawal of monsoon.

For the purpose of contingent crop planning for the above said three situations the state

can be broadly classified in to three agro climatic zones based on the previous experience

1. Middle and South Gujarat,

2. North Gujarat, Kutch and

3. Saurashtra region.

Normally monsoon starts in the second week of June in South and Middle Gujarat region

and it extends to North Gujarat by late third and fourth week of June. The monsoon withdraws

by the end of September in most parts of the state.

Due to large variations in the rainfall, the contingency plan to meet aberrant conditions

especially in drought prone areas is very much necessary. The farmers are to be guided very

urgently, so that the risk can be minimized by implementing the proposed programme.

The broad outline for growing alternate crops, crop management etc. in the event of

above said three climatic situations for three broad based agro climatic condition of the state are

given in Appendix-II.

The contingent crop planning based on the degree of onset of monsoon for Middle and

South Gujarat, North Gujarat and Saurashtra-Kutch region for choice of crop variety for a given

crop is given in Appendix-III.

The information regarding availability of certified seed/quality seed for Kharif-2015 is

tabulated in Appendix-IV which shows sufficient availability of seed during the season

The information regarding the requirement of fertilizers is in Appendix-V for Kharif-2015

Steps needed to derive full benefit from

I. NORMAL ONSET OF MONSOON ( 16TH JUNE TO 1ST JULY)

When rains are received normally, the following steps are needed to derive full benefit.

(A) General Practices

1. Land shaping and soil conservation including contour bunding should be practiced on a

watershed basis.


- 27 -

2. Adequate water harvesting and water storage practices should be adopted for use at later

stages as supplementary irrigations.

3. Land preparation operations should be completed before on-set of monsoon so that

timely sowing can be done with soaking rains.

4. Set rows if practiced should be across the general slope of the field.

5. Organic manure like F.Y.M. and compost manure and recommended dose of fertilizer

should be applied.

6. Sowing of groundnut, pearl-millet, sorghum and cotton with the onset of monsoon is

quite necessary. Proper plant stand establishment will help in making full use of limited

water available for the crops.

7. Inter-culturing and weeding should be done timely.

8. Seed treatment and timely plant protection measures should be adopted.

9. Mixed/inter-cropping practices are profitable.

(B) Choice of crops and its varieties

Following crops are suggested for normal rains

1. Pearl millet : GHB-577, GHB-558, GHB-538, GHB 719, GHB 732, GHB 744 MH-179,

(C) Other suggestions

1. To minimize risk under sole crop of groundnut inter-cropping of groundnut and castor in

3:1 ratio of crop rows in retentive soils should be followed.

2. Mixed/inter-cropping system should be included in the farm planning

3. Excessive inter culturing does not help in increasing crop yields so, does not do this

operation frequently

II. DELAYED ONSET OF MONSOON (1ST TO 15TH JULY)

To manage with the possible situation due to late on-set of monsoon, farmers of arid and

semi-arid region, as well as of the tribal areas of the sub-humid region, where rainfall is

normally assured but crops are raised under rainfall conditions, are being advised to adopt dry

farming technology. Farmers are advised to conserve rain water in situ conditions especially by

adopting cultivation practices across the slope and forming a deep furrow at an interval of 10”-

12” in lines.

The farmers are also advised for a contingent crop planning to adopt the following basic

recommendations.

1. Sown early maturity crop

2. Transplanting crop which is seedling is ready

3. Watershed approach in conservation of soil and water.

4. Conservation of runoff water in farm pond.

5. Preparation of land in advance of monsoon.

6. All agronomic practices across the slope.

7. Maximum use of farm yard manure.


- 29 -

8. Application of fertilizer as per recommendation.

9. Sowing of groundnut, Bajra, Jowar and Cotton in Kharif immediately on the onset of

monsoon.

10. Complete control of weeds.

11. Maintenance of maximum plant population in a unit area.

12. Timely plant protection.

13. Adoption of inter cropping to reduce the risk.

14. Adoption of recommended variety especially short duration High yielding variety

(HYV).

15. Conservation of moisture by timely inter-culturing and use of plastic as mulch.

16. Adoption of relay cropping in late rainfall conditions.

17. Farmers are advised to recharge their wells & tube wells during monsoon season so

that in case of scarcity water from wells & tube wells can be utilized.

18. For paddy crops if nursery is not raised , germinated seed should be utilized with SRI

method

The following recommendations are also advised to the farmers of arid and semi-arid

region through T&V system and transfer of technology approach.

1. Adoption of proper seed rate of different crops.

2. Seed treatment to protect seeds from disease / pest.

3. Supplementary irrigation at the time of critical stages of moisture especially to the

groundnut crop. Similarly for other crops also depending upon the demand and

availability of water.

4. Effective use of scarce water during crop sowing and adopting alternates furrow

irrigation; using modern technique of irrigation wherever possible.

5. To reduce the cost as well as the risk in dry farming, it is advised for timely sowing,

gap filling, weeding and fertigation.

6. Adoption of HYVs having short duration and resistant to water scarcity condition.

Steps suggested are as under:

A. When there is a failure of rain during June and early part of July but normal rains received

during late July, crops suggested are :

(a) Sorghum : CSH-6, CFS-4, 5, GFAS-11

(b) Black gram : T-9, Gujarat Black gram 1 and 2

(c) Green gram : Gujarat-2, GM-4

(d) Sesame : Purva-1

(e) Castor : GAUCH-1, GCH-2, GCH-6 , and GCH-7


- 30 -

Pigeon pea : BDN-2 & GT-100, 101, GT-1, AGT102, 2 VAISHALI

Under delayed rainfall conditions, sorghum is better than pearl millet.

B. If rains are delayed beyond the end of July, then following crops should be sown.

(1) Sesame : Purva-1

(2) Castor : GCH-2, GCH-4, GCH-5 and GCH-7

(3) Sorghum : Fodder type : CSV-21F, S-1049, Gundari, C-10, GFS-4,

(4) Maize :- African Tall

C. If rains are delayed till last week of July, it is not suggested to sow groundnut, pearl millet

or sorghum (Grain purpose).

III. NORMAL ONSET OF MONSOON FOLLOWED BY LONG DRY SPELL

Under this type of situation, if the first crop fails, the following crops can serve as mid-

season corrections.

(i) Sorghum Grain purpose :- GJ-38, GJ-39, GJ-40, GJ-41

(ii) Sorghum fodder purpose :- CSH-6, GFS-4, GFS-5, GAFS-11

(iii) Sunflower :- EC-68414, Modern GS-1, 2 & 3

(iv) Sesame :- Gujarat sesame –1, 2, 3 & 4

(v) Castor :- GAUCH-1, GCH-2, GCH-4, 5, 6 & GCH-7

After a long gap if rainfall is received towards the end of August or early September, following

crops can be taken.

(i) Sesame : Semi rabi (Purva-1)

(ii) Sorghum : Solapuri, GFS-4 (fodder type)

(iii) Safflower : Bhima, Tara

(iv) Sunflower : EC-68414, modern

(v) Pigeon pea : BDN-2, Vaishali As a relay crop in groundnut

(vi) Horse gram : chaffa, Guj Gram-2

Other Suggestions:

(i) As per the availability of irrigation water life saving irrigation should be given to the

crop in alternative furrow. Moreover drip or sprinkler irrigation system to irrigate the

crop at critical crop growth stages should be used.

(ii) Pest and disease infected plants should be removed.

(iii) Mulching should be used (organic or Plastic)

(iv) Frequent soil mulching should be follow in black soil.

(v) Frequent light interculturing operation should be done to avoid the evaporation losses

of soil moisture.

(vi) In Castor crop, the leaves from the plant should be reduced

(vii) Keep the crop in weed free condition

8 Tobacco Growth stage

9 Sugarcane Tillering & Maximum vegetative growth stage

10 Castor Flowering pod formation and seed setting stages

11 Pulses Flowering pod formation stage

12 Sesame Tillering, flowering capsule formation

IV. EARLY WITHDRAWAL OF MONSOON (BEFORE 31ST AUGUST)

Steps are suggested as under

(1) Thinning the plant population

(2) Minimize evaporation losses through complete removal of weeds.

(3) Soil cracks should be closed by inter-culturing operations.

(4) Apply supplementary irrigation at critical stages if water available

(5) Harvest at intervals as the plants show physiological maturity.

(6) Run-off collections in the early part of the monsoon can be used for supplemental

irrigation in the later part of the crops life cycle.

V. DELAY WITHDRAWAL OF MONSOON OR PROLONGED MONSOON SEASON

(AFTER 20TH SEPTEMBER)

Rainfall received during extended monsoon season can be utilized to take a rabi crop.

Some-times, satisfactory late rains are received during end of September or in early October. To

take advantage under such situations, it is recommended to adopt the following practices.

(1) Relay cropping of safflower, sunflower, fodder type of sorghum and mustard.

(2) Second crop like safflower, sunflower, gram and mustard after harvesting of early

Kharif crops.

(3) Ratooning of hybrid sorghum


- 32 -

(4) Crops possessing deep root system, less water requirement, early maturing and

minimum risk involving should be selected. Crops like

Chickpea Guj. Chickpea-1, Guj. Gram—2, Dahod Yellow chaffa

Fodder sorghum GJ-9, CSH-8, S-1049, GFS-4, FS-35

Fodder maize African Tall

VI. CONTINGENCY PLAN FOR HEAVY RAINFALL

Due to heavy rainfall, crops, which were sown as a pre monsoon Kharif crops, fruit, &

vegetable crops were lost or heavily damaged. In this situation the resowing of Kharif crops in

flood affected area is required. There by re-sowing is recommended as per Agro-climatic region-

wise contingency plan are as under:

1. Immediately drain out excess water from field.

2. Sowing of pulses crops like Tur, Udid, and Soya bean should be under taken when

Vapsa condition set in soil.

3. Transplanting of Paddy in areas where paddy seedling are available.

4. Drill paddy & Coarse cereals crops to be sown as early as possible.

5. To improve drainage system in vegetable crops.

6. Timely transplanting of vegetable seedling should be done.

In some area rice beds are filled with water & seedling are not ready in this situation farmers are

advised to broadcast pre-germinated paddy, paddy seeds after puddling in rice beds.

Judicious Use of Water:-

State receives rainfall from middle of June to September, since the state is located at

peripheral boundary of the main South West monsoon; the distribution of rainfall has been

extremely uneven and irregular. The amount of rain and its distribution during the monsoon

season also varies to a great extent from year to year at all places. Hence it is difficult to

maintain and increase, the per hectare production, without irrigation, as water resources in the

state are limited as compared to the total requirement of various crops especially in case of early

withdrawal of monsoon, when the crop require one or two protective irrigation to avoid crop

failure.

The status of irrigation potential and its utilization.

Irrigation facility is a key factor in increasing agriculture production. The ultimate

irrigation potential through surface water as per the latest estimate is assessed at 42.37 lakh

hectares, which includes 17.92 lakh hectares to be irrigated through Sardar Sarovar (Narmada)

project. The ground water resources are relatively limited and some of the ground water


- 33 -

resources are almost fully exploited in different parts of the state to the point of ecological

degradation. There is an urgent need to curb the over exploitation of water and the only

alternative left is augmentation of water resources through surface water.

Some important activities carried out by the State Government for the Development of

after resources are as under:-

Water requirement of crop at different stages Different crops have different requirement

for water. Some require water throughout the life cycle, while others need relatively less amount

of water and even some crops need different Quantity of water at various growth stages. For

better utilization of water, proper irrigation practices of crops must be viewed as per water

requirement of each stage of plant growth.

Growth of all plants can be broadly divided into three stages with regards to irrigation

practices for vegetative, flowering & fruiting. For most of crops, there are different critical

periods in the growing season, when high moisture level must be maintained for high yield. If

there is enough moisture for germination and for the development of any adequate stand, the

critical period almost always secured at the later part of season. When water supply is limited

knowledge of critical stage of crop growth either respects to moisture is essential for judicious

practices of water application.
